Work Experience at Bloomsbury

“My work experience placement at Bloomsbury took place from 16 June - 1 July 2011. It allowed me a unique and thoroughly interesting insight into the work of a editorial department of a major London-based trade publishing house. It was extremely valuable to me to see theory I had learnt in practice.

Overall, the placement went well and I enjoyed my time there. It was apparent that staff at Bloomsbury are accustomed to hosting work experience students and are very friendly and willing to help. I very much enjoyed the opportunity of working with the editorial assistants in their environment.”
